The easiest approach, imo, would be to remove the current member search input from the members directory.
For example, create an overload of this file and delete the code re member search:
buddypress\bp-templates\bp-legacy\buddypress\members\index.php
Then get this plugin: BP Profile Search
And configure a custom member search that only includes the fields you want.
These are the forums for just the BuddyPress plugin.
Please direct your questions about LearnPress – BuddyPress Integration to the creators of that plugin.
BuddyPress has a CLI command now you can use.

I think you’ve identified a bug with the registration form, it misleadingly gives the impression that the visibility for the Name field can be changed. Wuld you mind raising a bug report on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ ? Also you can use the same link to raise your feature request.
Thank your for looking into this, Venutius. Good to know that I can now raise a bug report, and a feature request as well. Thank you and your team for putting so much effort into this really great plugin!

If you are not an experienced developer, you may be better off hiring such a person.
Until you write some code and ask specific questions about it, here are some general pointers…
Take a look at how the activities are restricted on a group activity page.
There are some codex pages that provide info:
Add custom filters to loops and enjoy them within your plugin
Activity dropdown filters in templates
Thanks for your quick reply, Venutius!
I have tried the WP 2015 Theme and got the same results. So I switched back to KLEO and noticed, that the xProfile fields do change to the desired visibility settings, AFTER the user clicks the SAVE SETTINGS button. So I guess I was confused by the fact that BEFORE you hit the save button there is a misleading visual feedback (the visibility term does not alter to the according setting the user has just changed it to, it still displays the same value as before).
Could this be changed in the next release?
My first problem still remains: the „change display name visibility option“ is displayed beneath the name field on the user Registration page. This doesn’t make sense, if the name’s visibility throughout BuddyPress network is mandatory. How can I get rid of this line? Does this line and it’s user changeable visibility options really not appear on a default install?
In the WP Dashboard I cannot change the options for the primary Name field. Only the fields under the details tab can be altered by admin and set to be visibility-changeable by the user. (Hope you understand what I try to say 😉

Hello,
I upgraded buddypress from 2.9 to 4.1
I dont see default avatars in comments now. in img html I have something like this: http://img%20src=%20width=50%20height=50%20alt=%20class=avatar%20avatar-50%20wp-user-avatar%20wp-user-avatar-50%20photo%20avatar-default%20/
Do you have any suggestions?
I had to disable my child theme temporarily for some other issues after a recent theme/wordpress update and have lost some of my customizations. Becasue of this I now have the same issue but I don’t want it to show in the directory. I managed to remove it from my profile pages. I am using bp legacy though not nouveau. I tried your snippet with the snipit plugin and then tried it by editing the snipet to say buddypress_legacy but still not working. Any thoughts?
I also noticed that now on the right column people’s names wrap right like they are doing on that page if the screen is full? Any snipits for that that I can use until I get my child theme back running properly?
Okay looks like I can extend BP_Component which can then have rewrites, screens and actions.
How To Create A Custom BuddyPress Component In A Plugin
BP_Component
Great 🙂
If the following is to redirect Registration from BP to WP, what would redirect from BP to [Peepso_Register] ? And exactly where would I put it?
(Any reason why nobody has developed options to turn everything on or off in BP since it is so integrated with other themes and plugins?)
/*disable registration bp */
function my_disable_bp_registration() {
remove_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘bp_core_wpsignup_redirect’ );
remove_action( ‘bp_screens’, ‘bp_core_screen_signup’ );
}
add_action( ‘bp_loaded’, ‘my_disable_bp_registration’ );
add_filter( ‘bp_get_signup_page’, “firmasite_redirect_bp_signup_page”);
function firmasite_redirect_bp_signup_page($page ){
return bp_get_root_domain() . ‘/wp-login.php?action=register’;
}
Version 4.1.0 BuddyPress
Version 5.0.3 WordPress
Home Default
I have even modified the original message in bp-core-functions.php
There are 4 instances of that string in that file. Did you change all of them ?
As you should know – editing core files is not a good idea.
That string is in the buddypress.pot file.
And it seems to be in the buddypress-fr_FR files.
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/buddypress/dev/fr/default?filters%5Bterm%5D=complete+the+activation&filters%5Buser_login%5D=&filters%5Bstatus%5D=current_or_waiting_or_fuzzy_or_untranslated&filter=Filter&sort%5Bby%5D=priority&sort%5Bhow%5D=desc
So I do not know why you are having issues.
Have you tried using the Repair Tool – …/wp-admin/tools.php?page=bp-tools > Reinstall emails (delete and restore from defaults).
page-bp-public.php is not in the BuddyPress plugin.
$query->set('post_type', 'topic');
‘topic’ post types are created and handled by bbPress.

This is a BuddyPress forum.
Questions specific to WordPress should be asked on the WP support forums.
So there is an @ at the beginning of a user_nicename ?
BuddyPress does not typically do that; this seems more like a WP issue.
The ‘2’ usually means that the name was not unique and so a 2 was added.
Usually, the user_nicename is the same as the user_login so that it is unique.
Did you check your database to see if all login names are the same as their nicenames ?
Do you have some other plugin or custom code that manipulates or assigns either field?
Hi there, BuddyPress does not come with forums, for that you’d need a plugin such as bbPress.
Have you tried updating BuddyPress ? The current version is 4.1
Can you provide an example of a link that does not work?
And an url to a user profile ?
BuddyPress does not have a function called bb_notification_count
Are you using a BuddyBoss plugin or theme?
If so, that is where the issue is and you should contact BuddyBoss with your question.
It should work.
Try moving it to bp-custom.php
It looks like you are using a very customized version of BuddyPress.
BuddyPress typically lives in /wp-content/plugins/ not in /wp-content/mu-plugins/.
And it does not have a directory called /admin-mods/ or a file called bp-core-homebase-dashboard.php.
I doubt anyone here can help you.
You need to talk to the people who set up your website.
btw – bp_user_fullname() can be found in buddypress\bp-members\bp-members-template.php
I don’t think that’s a feature of BuddyPress itself, you’ll need to refer to the creators of that plugin.
BuddyPress does not provide forums.
Try using bbPress or maybe ask on their support forums.
Hi Varun.
Thank you very much for your answer.
I used the plugin that you mention and the migration went well.
The only problem is in all subsites the groups creation stopped working at step 2 for all the subsites.
A curious thing is that the group is created despite the crash at step 2.
When i go to the groups -> the group exists and i can configure the step 3, 4 and 5.
The problem is the crash and the white page. The user does not know what to do.
All of the other features of buddypress works fine.
Best Regards
Thanks Pal, Working GREAT
I was using bp_include like suggested in documentation but it seems it’s related to files only.
